Veggies and Veggies and Veggies Oh MY!

Holy buckets of blueberry buttons, Batman have I consumed mass quantities of veggies today. One would think where veggies are concerned that there is no such thing as "too much". Unfortunately, my digestive tract is not agreeing with that statement. The recipe is something I whipped up a few days ago and forgot I had in the fridge until I was ready to leave for work tonight. Try it at home if you like, but warning moderation may be needed if you have any where near as delicate a GI system as I do.

one small (baby size) yellow squash slicedone small (baby size) zucchini sliced1/2 diced yellow onion5 diced cloves of garlictwo peeled and sliced carrotsone stalk sliced celery2 cups baby spinache1 cup chicken brothone TBSP sunflower oilMix all together and cook until veggies are brightly colored and still crisp, yet spinache is wilted. It is delicioso served over pasta with some grated cheese. I might even consider using a white wine reduction with this. Enjoy, but be sure to wear elastic waisted pants when the bloat sets in!

About Me

Oh gosh, I am probably one of the most boring people I know and I like it that way. I love staying home and cooking or sewing. I enjoy having friends over, feeding people, good wine, laughing until it hurts, and cuddle time with my husband. I have 3 grown daughters that I am very proud of and that I talk with daily. I am a nurse, though I work in a job where I don't feel much like one. I have friends both near and far that I do not see or talk to nearly enough, though I hope they know the door is always open.
